No you are incorrect. Show me where the there is an agreed ISO on the contents and preparation method of an Irish Fry Up?

You're even using American terminology in your "Irish" fry"-up"!

Whatever happened to their sausages ?
I used to love them

Dunnes Newbridge have two varieties of Granby sausages - a premium range and regular. Saw them on Thursday.

So you can make an American breakfast in Ireland, but it's still an American breakfast as determined by the bulk of its constituent servings, not an Irish Fry 'Up' just because you serve it for breakfast in Ireland.

I'm thinking of ordering food later from Just-Eat so I'll probably get an Irish. But should I get a a traditional Irish Szechuan or maybe a vindaloo?

You're basically agreeing with the post you're quoting there. Maybe you meant to.

That would have ro be made in Britain. Go to tesco or M&S and you'll get one of the premade meals there if you want one

I dunno how the idea of a big, tasteless greasy dish as the first thing to have when you wake up is appealing, I can't be the only one who thinks this (I'm talking about getting the full irish if you're in a hotel or wherever - one made up at home might be different) Do you not feel like crap afterwards? At most I'd have the beans and fried tomato along with a continental breakfast.

This is more my idea of a fry up, maybe with cannellini or kidney beans cooked with tomato purée separate from the avocado. mmmm

Erra I'm not one of those morons if that's what you thought.

MeTheMan · 08-09-2018 6:14pm

Boxty! Ya can't have a proper fry up without Boxty. Hate getting a fry with two of everything and then one egg. What use is one egg. Miserable feckers.

Black Pudding... urgh

ouxbbkqtswdfaw · 08-09-2018 6:39pm

The sausages on sale in Irish supermarkets are pure shoyte. No taste whatsoever. Even the butcher ones, pure crap. What happened the good old pork sausage?

Kidney, sliced and fried with onions and some toast. That's it. Tea is British so **** off with that, a nip of whiskey instead.

Soda farls are completely different to potato cakes.

Big difference between Farls and Potato Bread. Farls are Soda bread and Potato Bread is make from, well, potato.

I always assumed the nordies were eating potato cakes. We also eat soda bread with the fry but it doesn't look like what they're eating.

EDIT: Apparently, they eat both.

Sausage, rasher, eggs, liver, black and white pudding, a lamb or pork chop, potato bread or soda bread. No mushrooms, tomato or beans and certainly none of that American abomination of hash browns. A few fried onions are permitted.

Who can afford chops now

I stopped eating meat as a young teenager but the only meats I ever liked as a child was black pudding, liver and kidney. What a monster !

We're really missing out on all the fried breads and boxty type things down here.

What’s the point of it? It doesn’t taste particularly good, it doesn’t look good, it’s mostly just breadcrumbs with a suggestion of meat. A perplexing foodstuff if ever there was one.

The Rape of Lucretia · 08-09-2018 8:34pm

Amazing this concoction, in any of its variants, is still available, let alone celebrated. Its horrendous. A vile assembly of assorted highly unhealthy foods. In a gloupy, sticky, fatty, melange, that really is the nearest thing to a dog's dinner. I wouldnt feed to a dog even.
Some yoghurt, fresh bread, a piece of fresh fruit, and a café au lait or a cappuccino according to your preference. Leaves the stodge of a fry for dead.
Really is time to start a health campaign warning people of its dangers, nudging it towards extinction.
Tomatoes or no tomatoes.

The Irish Fry, what's a no-no?
